Picked up some foam from HD yesterday, and got an idea on a design. So here we go! Wish me luck and feel free to give advice!

I'll be using the 2" for walls and the 3/4 for roof. All covered in canvas..

"I kinda like the profile on this one, so I'll kinda base my design in that but I'll see what happens as I go along" that's my design so far

Thank you. It's a 30x40.. I bought this place about 4 months ago and VERY quickly filled it up! Buts it's awesome to have a shop. All I had before was a small covered carport...

Cut out all my trailer parts and carted them over to dad-in-laws and welded it all together! Feel like I'm getting somewhere now! Sorry didn't get a pic when finished but here's one almost..

Thanks!
It rained all day but that's the worst of it this time. It's been a stormy winter/spring here in the south! But a rain day or three is good for project progress as I can't work in the rain!

Looks great! From a person who made this error, make sure there is enough gap around your door for all your canvas layers and paint. Easy to take a bit of size off the door now, much harder later.
